To make this a reality. The latest versions of NDS and AD both make it possible to host millions of users, and provide methods to remotely administer them. I still think they need better web tools and relational databases to track the changes though. I would never give admin the right to directly modify my security database.
As for ASPing, it will be a no brainer in about two years for companies to host apps for others and share licencing when not in use.
NT Software routers are just as good as any other software router, including LINUX. The major area they seem to lack support on is with the latest protocols that are avaiable for fault-tolerance and Internet connectivity.
NT doesn't do BGP so making a NT server a dedicated router on the Internet will not work, but for a small network or internal network it can do the trick. I am not sure Linux does it either but I am sure someone is looking into it.
There is a really good article in this months Windows 2000 zine that talks about software routing vs hardware. You can read the article off the web if you want.
Perhaps they made it too stable? There is a registry entry that you can use to force a blue stop screen on Windows NT (hopefully this is because you won't ever see one otherwise). First, backup your registry, then make the following change:
Hive: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE Key: System\CurrentControlSet\Services\i8042prt\Paramet ers Name: CrashOnCtrlScroll Data Type: REG_DWORD Value: 1 (0 or nothing will disable the feature)
After a restart, holding down the right-side CTRL key and pressing the Scroll lock key twice will generate the Blue Screen of Death.
I know there is a registry mod that you can add to allow hitting a key combo to start the system failure procedure. Try calling MS tech support of you are unlucky with your searchs.
Also there is a pretty good procedure outline in the link below. The article is about clustering and testing it.
MS has already submitted the language spec to the standards bodies, unlike SUN. And they are addressing cross platform issues with this language as well.
Do some research before you speak.

While I am sure MS doesn't care if your readers Piss, Moan and Cry about the Kerbero's Issue, they do care when you allow links to the copyrighted matterial. Take some responcibility. If the Open Source community wants to be taken seriously they better respect other peoples property. I agree with Free Speach but I still think it is illegal to yell Fire in a crowded theater too. Grow up! Toddler

This is my gripe with this site... too many hot heads trying to prove nothing. It's getting worse than the damn media.

Actually the Windows 2000 and NT 4 terminal services are pretty good. I use RA terminal servers and find them to be snappy and great.

Good luck.

Actually MS licenced the technology from IBM. (Both COM and DCOM). The COM+ is just a marketing word.
